This was a nice interesting explore, it was the height of the olympics and ruddy boiling !, we where glad to get inside !, lets start off with some of the boring details shall we 
Large art deco building established in the 1930s and was closed around some point in the 80's it was due to be demolished in 2008 but from what i can tell it was opposed by the public and is now a listed building ?
edit : not quite, taken from another report
Upon entering the building we where greeted with a bunch of local chavs/ pikee's who where there to "annoy the builders", all we heard was them running around shouting, So we ended up hiding for a bit in a small room until they finally buggered off, didnt much fancy the agrro !. Anyway onto the photos !
The place was littered with empty bags and rubbish, a lot more compared to a 2008 reports i saw =[
The stairs where loovely though !
Dont use the escalator !
So sad to see =[, homeless possessions, all they have just laying there..
On to the board room !
Sadly it was a tad too hot for a fire today.. and i forgot the marshmallows .. blast !
The architecture from outside was loovely
Mirrored windows meant we could peep outside and not worry about being seen
Indeed !
Can't help my self the stairs where great ^^
Up on the roof, was a lovely view !
And lovely machinery !
And to our suprise we found some fellow explorers up on the roof ! shooting some form of music video !.. would really love to of know how this went :dunno2:
Dont do it !!
One of the two safes left
And saw this on the way down woops :mrgreen:

It now sits there being slowly trashed and is resident to many homeless, this was actually my first encounter with homeless on an explore. You suddenly realise that you are not only in a place you shouldn't be, but you're in someone elses home and respecting that is up most important.
